Pictures of your meals? Please?

Hi all....I'm contemplating getting sleeved. I've read all the horror stories of the excruciating pain,to hardly no pain after surgery. I've read some people only able to eat 2-3 ounces to 6-8 ounces. Well is there someone that can post a picture of what the "actually" eat in a meal setting? Thanks a bunch!

So you want a food selfie????????

Okay, here is Frankensleeve and one of my favorite meals - black Beans and ground turkey meat.

To give you some size comparisons, I shot it next to a disposable lighter and my 1/2 cup Gladware container.
